Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium high and once the grates are hot, rub them with half of a potato to make them nonstick.
- Cut the zucchinis in half and then slice them into 1/4 inch thick pieces lengthwise.
- Brush the zucchini slices with olive oil on both sides.
- Prepare the sauce by mixing the yogurt, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Set it aside.
- Grill the zucchini slices for 2 to 4 minutes on each side until cooked.
- Spoon the yogurt tahini sauce on a serving platter and spread it to cover the platter. Then arrange the grilled zucchini on the sauce and top with tomatoes and fresh mint if desired.
Notes
- If grilling outdoors isn't an option, cook the zucchini slices in a grill pan or a regular pan indoors.
- You can prepare the tahini yogurt sauce up to 2 days in advance.
